    There is a different way to approach rail engineering that would improve safety, accessibility and efficiency for everyone. #LevelBoarding at every door of every platform. No more steps or ramps needed. Join our campaign for change!

    We need a rolling schedule of platform and train improvements to enable Level Boarding, to the benefit of everybody.

    The huge gap at Barry Docks because the gap is dangerous and level boarding is safer for everyone.

    My mum is in her 60s and she’s avoided getting the train to Barry for nearly a decade because she cannot manage the gap. At least when we had pacers there was a slight step to help, but on a 150 it’s just a leap of faith

    Off to Norwich today. @Reytomas1228 and I are mapping accessibility on @greateranglia. This is Liverpool St platform 10 on a low floor class 745 stadler train. This is what many platforms could look like if @transportgovuk chose to specify low floor trains. No idea why they don’t

    This is such an access barrier for people using @SouthernRailUK. Safety and accessibility mean that we need a rolling programme of platform alterations to enable level boarding.

    We need and deserve level boarding, on the Elizabeth line as across the UK. I hope Eric recovers from his experience. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

    The Scottish Government has announced a procurement to replace ScotRail's InterCity high-speed trains. A commercial tender will now be launched in the coming weeks, setting out timescales for the replacement. This is good news as we work towards a green and reliable railway.

    Today we issued an open letter to the MD of @greateranglia commending the introduction of partial #LevelBoarding but calling for better information and processes at non-level boarding stations to prevent disruption for disabled passengers.

    Here's our map showing current and future #LevelBoarding Currently, it's very limited and even by 2040, will cover just a fraction of the UK rail network. We can do so much better than this. What we need is a political commitment to inclusive travel with some real ambition.

    Three passengers have been severely injured catching the new Elizabeth Line trains at Ealing Broadway, because the height difference between the platform and train is so great. We need a rolling programme of platform adjustments to prevent these accidents from happening.

    Ms Daramola says platform is dangerous + needs fixing: "Main thing is gap is too high, I fear someone will die, because I was actually unconscious, and will happen to other people” @TfL - Will it take passengers death before Elizabeth Line platform is fixed at Ealing Broadway?
